I completely over-complicated today’s NYT Mini Crossword. I couldn’t get my head around the “place for a blowout” clue until it hit me—it was obvious. “Blowout” has several meanings depending on where you come from. My first instinct was some sort of ********** or argument, but where does that occur? In reality, the answer was a lot more straightforward. View the full article

From the moment of its reveal, many players’ feelings on The First Descendant were that it’s a hodgepodge of mechanics, ideas, systems, structures and designs found in other popular live service loot shooters. It wasn’t until everyone actually started playing that those feelings were pretty much confirmed. We called out its lack of originality when Connor and I played it over a year ago, but now that it’s in the hands of millions of players, many more cracks are starting to show.

Aside from the Prismatic subclass, The Final Shape added one new Light super for each class in Destiny 2, and one of them is already dominating PvP. In The Final Shape, Hunters got a Storm’s Edge super that lets them blink from point A to point B and damage the enemies around them in a split second, up to three times. While Storm’s Edge is average in PvE, it leaves no-one standing in PvP and can easily one-shot Guardians. On June 5, Destiny 2 players on Reddit agreed the super needs to be “neutered.” View the full article
You're all probably quite desperate to smooch Baldur's Gate 3's Astarion in Stardew Valley, and hopefully by the end of the year you'll be able to. Back in April, a small group of modders revealed that they're working on a mod for Stardew Valley all about last year's biggest game, Baldur's Gate 3. Planned characters included fan favourites like Astarion, Shadowheart, Gale and Halsin, with only the first and last characters listed there being romanceable. However, XunHe1145, one of the modders on the project, shared an update over the weekend that detailed when you can potentially expect the first part to be released, and some other new additions to it. "Although the release date has not been decided, there is a high probability that the first part will be released this fall or winter," wrote XunHe1145. That'll obviously be exciting for the venn diagram of Stardew Valley and Baldur's Gate 3 fans, but it wasn't the only update offered about the mod. For one, there's some new stores, one of which is a restaurant managed by Rolan - or, well, more specifically, Rolan's Projection, similar to how the Projection serves you in Sorcerous Sundries. Rolan does appear himself, and he's not a marriable NPC, but he will appear occasionally on the map. The update also offered a reminder that only Astarion and Halsin are available for marriage, but once the first part of the mod is out, those that support the team's Patreon will be able to vote on who can be married next.
